Take a slight issue with that subheading but, interesting little article from Drive..

"[The Mazda MX-5] retractable hardtop version is a handsome thing, all flying buttresses and fastback swagger, a silhouette that’ll pull non-enthusiasts into dealerships. ... The mechanism weighs roughly 110 pounds. And, functionally, it isn’t too far off the 911 Targa’s hypnotizing robotic clasp-and-tentacle movement. So the RF is being applauded for pulling that level of showmanship from the Porsche-osphere into any schmuck’s driveway.Too bad a weird French roadster did it better six years ago."
